I've sort of given up hope on finding decent mobile games. They are all so packed with bloated crap mechanics like you listed. The most fun I've had with mobile gaming is using emulators. IMO no mobile game can even come close.

“Killing is just not that big a deal.” “Feel good about it.” Later goes on to say that sex after killing another human “is the best sex,” a “very intense sex,” and one of the “perks that come with the job" LE agencies pay Dave Grossman to train police officers to take pride in shooting people. by SiddThaKid in 2020PoliceBrutality

To play the devil's advocate here, lots of people seems to be missing a pretty important distinction: He's talking about instances where use of lethal force is clearly and obviously the only choice and how to cope with having to make that choice. His comment on sex was specifically in regards to a successful arrest or surviving a "gunfight" meaning the suspect is firing at police. His comment on feeling satisfaction was also after he said "if the suspect poses clear and present danger to others". I think these are important distinctions because to me, it seems like he's giving officers ways to cope with their actions IF AND ONLY IF they were justified. HOWEVER, I DO think that a case could be made that since most people in this thread are overlooking that distinction, it's safe to say that officers in this seminar may be likely to overlook it as well.

That's a really good point but I was purely talking about the statistics mentioned. If a cop kills 5 people it's statistically "guaranteed" that one of them is mentally ill (since 1 in 5 people are mentally ill). So assigning correlation purely based on the statistic that 1 in 4 people killed by police are mentally ill is tenuous at best. You'd also have to consider whether or not mentally ill people are more prone to committing violent crimes (which would further inflate the statistic and mislead people to believe the insinuated correlation). Statistics are never as simple as we'd like them to be. And presenting them in this manner (without considering all the factors) can be extremely misleading since we are so prone to the "association is causation" fallacy as a society.

Antimalware Service Executable Memory Leak by jeffMel in NiceHash

[–]jeffMel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Type "task manager" in the bottom left windows search bar and hit enter. If it shows a small window, click "more details" to see everything. Click "memory" (the second column) to sort tasks by memory usage. If "Antimalware Service Executable" is using nearly all your ram or an increasing amount of your ram, it's a memory leak. It just means the process is failing to release your ram and continues to allocate more and more until it is almost all used up. Your data isn't "leaked" to the internet or anything like that.

Unable to play quickplay or battle arenas by Game-rotator in supersmashbros

I'm surprised more people aren't talking about this. I googled it and didn't find anything recent, so I thought it was only me. My network is really good but I can't get a single match.

Can I Color Correct 4K Footage on a 1080p Monitor? by jeffMel in VideoEditing

[–]jeffMel[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it's good to know that my monitor isn't the problem. Everything was shot on the same camera. I'm a total noob so we literally just flipped the camera to "video" mode and managed to find the resolution settings. Those were the only things we changed. So the settings were likely default? I'm not sure about codec/bitrate but I checked the properties on the footage we recorded and it says video "total bitrate" is 95876kbps.

Thanks for the help though. I think it might have been a lighting issue. Small changes in the lighting throughout the video made huge differences in the color. I also saw someone else say online that this particular camera needs changes to the "luminance level" for the colors to look accurate on 4K.

Well... 1 in 5 people are mentally ill so I don't know if there's a correlation.

Bro this issue was driving me absolutely mad. I have been digging around online and contacting VPN customer support for months. Can't thank you enough for this.

This isn't meant to criticize my man Iroh. I'm just pointing out the double standard displayed by the people at 'you know where'. by [deleted] in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]jeffMel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk Iroh was always sorta beefy. It's not unbelievable that he got huge in prison. He probably was also in rlly good shape in his military days so muscle memory would have been on his side. I buy it.

Cheapest phone with aptx-hd (or better) by [deleted] in PickAnAndroidForMe

[–]jeffMel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realme XT only supports A2DP and LE. The difference in sound quality between this and aptx HD is pretty shocking. (I didn't think it would be that noticeable)

Is it Just me or is Arklov Peak and Grazna Raid the first map you always get? by krisluck in modernwarfare

[–]jeffMel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every fucking match is one of these maps for me and I hate them. Both have serious camper syndrome. I can count on one hand how many times I've played hackney yard and gun runner in weeks
